Site Reliability Engineering is more than a job title or the name of a team: we know it is a collection of approaches and practices that allow an organisation to deliver their applications at scale.
We set out to give a definition of what the principles of SRE should be able to deliver to an organisation, and to supply you with a roadmap of how to go from first considering implementing SRE practices, to what your first SREs should be tasked with, to making your SRE team a stable and productive fixture in your organisation.
